Picker Pals

February 22, 2023

Second Class in St Mary’s are busy keeping Cobh clean as the partake in the Picker Pals initiative.

The world faces a global crisis of waste in the environment. Every part of the natural world is affected. Neighbourhoods and beauty spots are despoiled. There’s an economic impact of litter on communities and a psychological effect on children living in litter. Communities and families feel powerless and people lack the tools or motivation to take action and the belief that their small actions can impact on global issues. Littering is normalised among certain groups and there is a disconnect with nature and local environmental stewardship. There is the will and the urgent need to find real, practical solutions to this crisis. Picker Pals is one of these solutions and we are proud to play our part.
